OTC to honor fallen soldier on Monday

Joseph M. Peters

Ozarks Technical Community College will mark Veterans Day with a tribute to Special Agent Sgt. Joseph M. Peters at 11 a.m. Monday in the Jared Family Atrium at the college's Springfield campus.

Peters, an OTC graduate, was killed Oct. 6 when his unit was attacked in Afghanistan. The family will be in attendance Monday, including Peters' father, Dennis, who is OTC's Veterans Student Services representative. There will be a moment of silence.
